Refrigeration cont.
adjusting the superheat stem clockwise (superheat
increase) and the stop is reached, any further clockwise
turning adjustment will damage the valve.
Determining Subcooling
1. Measure the temperature of the liquid line on the
small refrigerant line (liquid line) just outside the
split cabinet. This location will be adequate for
measurement in both modes unless a significant
temperature drop in the liquid line is anticipated.
2. Measure the liquid line pressure by attaching
refrigerant gauges to the schrader connection on the
liquid line service valve.
3. Convert the pressure obtained in Step 2 to the
saturation temperature by using the Pressure
Temperature Conversion Chart for R-410A.
4. Subtract the temperature in Step 1 from the
temperature in Step 3. The difference will be the
subcooling value for that unit. Refer to the Operating
Parameters tables for subcooling ranges at specific
enter water conditions.

NOTES: * The “Charge Amount with NAH Air Handler” column is based on the charge amount for an NAH Air Handler +
Compressor Section Split.
Additional charge will have to be added accordingly for line set length.
After charge is added, adjustments can be made to get appropriate subcooling and superheat.
Additional charge for R-410A is 0.50 oz. per ft. for 3/8 in. and 1.0 oz. per ft. for 1/2 in. tube.
